I'd like to introduce Frank Azar's secret alternate costume, Raza Knarf.
The animations are all upside down but the hitboxes are the same so he's deeply frustrating to play as.

I built Pixalign Studio, a desktop tool to automate 2D sprite sheet slicing, foot-grounding, hitboxes, & code export (Godot/Unity/Phaser). 🚀
Looking for ~15 indie devs for a closed beta test of the .exe!

Competitive gaming hot take: the heroes that are hardest to hit are never the ones dealing zero damage. Luna Snow has one of the smallest hitboxes in Marvel Rivals AND can still flip a match. What character do you consistently whiff on no matter how locked in you are?

Although, in the case of these 3, they were probably the easiest to translate into 3D. For other characters, some creative liberties would be needed to make sure their models match with the hitboxes

Learning fighting games doesn't start with footsies, hitboxes and framedata, it starts with how do I do moves.

I think the biggest difference in both TALENT & EFFORT within modern gaming today cannot be solely described by yellow paint-
But that any mother fucker thought to makr HitBoxes for Fences, Each Fucking Line.
Any Variant of this concept.
If I See Through It
And
It Is Not BulletProof Glass
You Suck

Imo these mechanics are work in 3D because they lighten some of the stress of dealing with depth perception and more vague enemy hitboxes, but in 2D you're kinda just getting rid of an entire axis for no reason.

That's among it! Honestly while I don't think not having it is intrinsically bad, the general trend away from it I think is a negative. These are platformers, about jumping, and mobile hitboxes are a tool that make players solve problems with the inherent tool of the genre.
is this about games that don't have persistent hitboxes on enemies?

i feel like no mario game has got jumping cheep cheeps right like SMB1/2J did. not even the levels, but the cheeps/spawner themselves. their small hitboxes combined with the way they change their spawn point and speed to match your momentum; it feels so good to fly by them and just barely dodge them

The boss’s hitboxes felt kinda bad also. A big part of the difficulty for me was that I would underestimate its reach… I hope that isn’t a bad omen…

Sometimes I like putting on Souls playthroughs for background noise and I think one of the most nails-on-chalkboard whines is "the hitboxes."
It's always DS2, it's a misunderstanding of how they work. Can we stop doing this?

The new dodge move is fine, it works, but I can't tell for the life of me if it gives you I-Frames or not. Sometimes it seemed like it did, other times not so much.
Maybe the first boss, The Fallen, just has big hitboxes, idk.

Cai riding a big bird would probably make his hitboxes fucked but I think having a mounted character in a fighting game would be cool esp if it was an ice climbers situation where he could be knocked off of it and would have a less powerful moveset when dismounted

sulyvahn was a cool fight in theory but i didn't care for how his fight had delayed swings with weird hitboxes that lingered too long + him arbitrarily breaking my lock on every now and then. and aldrich had some weird physical swings that it was hard to get a bead on + that fucking arrow move.

like phase 1 is easy its avoiding some of those moonbeam hitboxes in phase 2 that always ends up killing me because apparently i am only good at using the holy moonlight sword myself and ludwig just thinks its funny to beat my ass with it

I think cai would be cool bc his default class is ornius rider (they’re like big ostriches) and it’d be fun to have a chocobo rider type character in a fg even though his hitboxes would probably be fucked

Okay but what the fuck is up with how forgiving those hitboxes look?

progress for today : Hitboxes are shown ingame now (it's a cool debug trick) and if you look closely at the punch, the animation actually calls for a hitbox to be spawned and despawned
It's definitely a finnicky process for now, but i am thinking of making a tool to make the process easier

I used to love post processing but modern games have made me wish I could just see hitboxes. I can't enjoy your art though all the GODRAYS and BLOOM so can I just see the game, mechanically. Just give me flat n64 "textures" dog my eyes are tired of all this detail.
